AEON School

Available worldwide with a Wi-Fi connection, AEON School is deliberately designed to promote deep, innovative learning with exceptional flexibility. With its interdisciplinary, project-based curriculum tailored for synchronous and asynchronous learning, a proprietary learning platform, and an outstanding collaborative global faculty, AEON is setting a new benchmark in online education. Our students come from over 40 countries, contributing their diverse cultural and geographical backgrounds and global mobility to their daily learning experience. From early childhood through 12th grade, our students learn online to thrive offline, applying their knowledge to their local contexts around the globe. At AEON, students are encouraged to take ownership of their education from a young age and cultivate the critical and creative thinking skills required to comprehend and address global-scale challenges.

The Opportunity

The foundation of an AEON education is Great Works, where students engage in interdisciplinary projects that merge the study of literature, history, philosophy, economics, social sciences, math, science, engineering, technology, and design. A Great Books curriculum enhances each unit of study. Students read and discuss selected texts that enrich their understanding of what they learn and shape the defining ideas of humanity. The result is a unique blend of academic depth and interdisciplinary breadth, guiding students to make insightful connections between their coursework and the world around them. 

As a Great Works STEAM teacher, you will support students in grades 6-12 as they explore the Great Works curriculum focused on social sciences, math, science, engineering, technology, and design. This position will support students in our Cohort Pathway, which brings students together in synchronous classes to provide an immersive and collaborative learning experience for students. As a cohort teacher, you design interactive activities and  productive discussions, and foster a supportive environment where the students can engage with each other's ideas and perspectives.
